The lyrics? I kinda expected something kinda bigger in thought.. I love the title, I think it would work better as an album title than What About Now. I was surprised that it is a love song actually. Or it should look like a love song and it has some notions of deeper meaning. It's written in the theme of LOAP and BTBMB but not in their league. I translate BJ songs to my language and this one wasn't that much entertaining. The "because we can" line seems not natural as the last line of the chorus, it's in a different person etc.
Can you give me your lyrics explanation? I love talking about songs and what they mean because I love looking for and finding best expressions and way to translate it to my language.
